Description: The World According to Garp by John Irving. A first edition and first overall printing signed by Irving on the half title page in black ballpoint pen. Irving’s 4th novel and winner of the national book award when it was released in paperback. The one that put Irving on the map so to speak. A film would eventually be made based on the novel that would feature Robin Williams & Glen Close and even a cameo by John Irving. . The book is in VG+ with a really nice clean internal composition with no writing or book plates. Sharp corners and tautly bound. Boards in very nice shape, gilt lettering to the spine. . Jacket in about fine condition not price clipped, very little if any toning to front panel or spine lettering. The price remains on the jacket and it’s not clipped. Rare signed in first printing. .
